There seems to be two issues here from what I can tell:

1. I was able to reproduce this with Firefox **Beta** for iOS, but not with release (tabs show up immediately on the synced tabs menu)

2. With both Beta & Release Firefox on iOS, I eventually see the synced tabs on the FxA avatar menu -- but Firefox View is stuck on the "Sync Firefox on your phone or tablet" and I can't seem to get out of that mode unless I restart the browser.

Using the `about:sync` addon for seeing what's on the server, and it looks like Beta is sometimes not pushing tabs correctly after changing the password on the device.

So I'm going to say this seems closer to an issue with iOS after changing password/signing in+out. However my (2) points there might be something in the Firefox View flow that stops the pickups from happening?

Maria, do you happen to know which iOS version you are using for testing?
